Nice dinner with friends but we were the only customers. It didn't matter that we were alone as we were entertaining enough on our own but I do worry that places aren't sustainable without support.

After stopping for some lunch time refreshments and looking at the food menu, we decided to book a table for our evening meal. The food was very enjoyable and well cooked, as it should be. The staff were obliging and friendly and the overall ambience of the pub was conducive to an an enjoyable evening, no complaints from us, worth a visit.

I recently visited The Red Lion with my wife and children (aged 1 and 4), and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by an amazing host (so sorry I didn’t get your name!) who instantly engaged with the kids and made them laugh while he showed us to our table. Once seated, we were left in the very capable hands of Henrietta. She was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. We had initially booked for Sunday lunch, but after seeing the other items on the menu, I changed my mind and ordered what I can only describe as the best Sea Bass dish I’ve ever had. Cooked to absolute perfection, the flavors were insane! Hats off to the kitchen staff who really know what they’re doing! My wife had the chicken, leek and tarragon pie, which was new on the menu for the day. The flavors and presentation of this dish were incredible. What really sets this place apart is how family-friendly it is. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy a meal with your young children, look no further. The staff are understanding and accommodating, and the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. My son banged his head on the table while getting down, and the host (again, so sorry I didn’t get your name!) was at our table within seconds with a free scoop of ice cream for him, which settled him instantly. The instinctive nature of the staff at this place is brilliant. If you’re looking for delicious food, outstanding service, and a warm and welcoming environment, The Red Lion should be at the top of your list. I can’t recommend it enough!

Visited for a roast dinner and was quite disappointed. The staff are really friendly and efficient, it’s just a shame that the food lets them down. The roast had frozen roast potatoes and the remainder seemed to be reheated. Would not recommend.

I cannot thank Kirsty and the Red Lion Adderbury Team for their incredible service at our very last minute work lunch. I called requesting a very last minute table for a large party with the added preface that we needed to be very quickly in and out. The staff on the day were fully prepared for us and we had our drinks and meals come out before every member of our party had even taken their seats. The service was exemplary and I could not recommend this location more! Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!!

We went for a Sunday roast - very disappointing, after a long wait we were served up a turkey roast - Microwaved veg, old pre-warmed roast (extremely salty) dry turkey, a rubbery yorkshire pud, and lumpy gravy - with an extremely hot plate... I would have complained but all the staff looked like they had already had the day from hell... Don't think we will be returning!!!

I had been in Banbury town for the Armed Forces day celebrations and decided to pop into the Red Lion on my way home for a little dessert. Although very busy, there was a spare table on the patio where I sat and enjoyed a Brownie Sundae. As the sun was out, it would have been rude not to have a drink also...with a wide selection if gins, I chose the Malfy Rosa and was recommended the Fever Tree Mediterranean Tonic to go with it. Love the local vibe, love how they welcome everyone like old friends.

A truly exceptional country pub. We had the 48hr pork belly roast and the chocolate cheesecake and both were the best we’ve ever eaten (and we eat out a lot). Bottomless vegetables and gravy was an unexpected bonus we hadn’t encountered before. The value here certainly exceeds the price. The staff were super friendly, led by the proprietor who is visibly present, hosting generously and genuinely ensuring everyone is completely satisfied. Great beers - notably Timothy Taylor which is a personal favourite - and lots of outside tables, about half of which seem to be for walk-ins (love this). In a word: outstanding.

We stopped at The Red Lion by chance- passing through Guildford and needing lunch- and checked local reviews. What an outstanding choice. Warm welcome on arrival - despite no reservation and it being Father’s Day! Found us a table which was free for 75 minutes- which was perfect. Service was warm and efficient. We ordered smoked salmon with Guinness and treacle bread and haloumi chips to start and the veggie roast and a pork roast. The food was delicious. Clearly made with quality ingredients and by a skilled chef/team. So far above average pub food. Would look for reasons to come to this area again simply to visit this pub. Also the aspect across the green is delightful, and it is dog friendly.. Highly recommend.

Our first visit, to the the Red Lion in May 2024, was a family occasion to remember a family member who passed away. We had family guests from America, Horsham, Reading and neighbours from Crawley. There were 7 children (ages 11 through to 2) in the party who were all served their meals with plenty of sauces and ice cream and sticky toffee pudding. Keeping them very happy whilst the adults all reminisced and enjoyed their food, Big thumbs up! The food was served hot and timely - Everyone enjoyed themselves and their food which was fabulous, we were had excellent service from Chris and his staff. Great atmosphere. Children went across to the nearby cricket field to let off steam and came back to fresh cold water to cool them down. thank you The Stewarts and families

This place will live in my dreams. I cannot - can NOT - over rate this experience. A quintessential British Pub with ample seating. Since I can’t compare my meal there (a Sunday roast) to any other since it was my first, I can only compare it to other meals I’ve had in my life. This was simply one of the best 10 meals I’ve ever had in my lifetime. It was partly the food, for sure. We ordered 4 different roasts - a pork belly, a beef, a chicken, and a mushroom vegetarian. All were spectacular. Add in a sourdough starter with herbed butter and a separate order of mouthwatering chips as a side. All were indescribably delicious. The care and thoughtfulness put into each and every decision in each dish is evident. What put this experience over the top is the man who runs the place - Sean. Sean was so genuinely pleased to have us, not only there as friends of his regulars, not only as traveling Americans, but also as first timers to his place - and - first timers for a “proper” Sunday Roast. His hospitality is unmatched. A naturally gregarious sort, I imagine that his and his staff’s approach to a pub experience is one of the many reasons for the Red Lion’s high ratings. We are already thinking of returning to the UK for a visit, and working a stop into the Red Lion for a meal and a pint is on the list.

We booked this pub for lunch quite by chance, en route to a family event. Having been a licensee myself for over thirty years, these people are doing everything right. A lovely welcome greeting. Attentive but not intrusive service. An excellent menu which offers value for money. And, to cap it all, they passed my acid test - a properly kept and served pint of cask ale.

I visited this pub during a post funeral get together. The manager is charming as were the bar staff. There is a lovely garden and the interior exudes a sense of history. Parking is easy and the Red Lion is both dog and baby friendly. I have no idea of how expensive, or inexpensive the drinks and food is (as I was a guest). The food consisted of sandwiches and chips. I realize that this does not represent culinary rocket science... but they were delicious. I live in Teddington, where the pubs are expensive, anonymous and totally lacking in any sense of hospitality, and don't really like pubs in this country much at all. I would, however, be very happy to go back to the Red Lion. I wish the manager and his staff the best of luck.

I won’t mix my words but possibly the best Sunday roast ever. Met by the founder a Mr Sean. What a lovely human being an old school gent is the best way to describe. We were meant to be seated outside but he quickly turned this around for the inside. Recommended a beautiful light local ale which I devoured in 5 mins. Ordered food and probably within 10 or 15 mins food arrived piping hot, abundant and well presented. The food was divine every last mouthful. My kids are fussy eaters and they finished the lot. Wife was sceptical but gob smacked as the food was just incredible along with the first class service. Sean spoke to us throughout the meal with suggestions and pleasant family banter. What’s really apparent is how busy the place became with one half hour. How Sean dealt with every customer like his life depended on it and how each customer warmed to him. Staff super attentive learning from the maestro. Can’t fault the place now etched in my mind. I’ve travelled the world and gone to many places to eat but this place is a 10/10 and I never give a 10 to anyone. Well done Sean. See you and your team soon. Avy and Family.

We were 5 minuets early for our booking to find a couple were sitting at our reserved table, the waitress asked the couple to move to another table as the table booking had arrived, we sat there getting daggers off the moved couple until they left. For my main course I ordered salmon, to be informed they had no spinach that went with it, I was asked if I would mind having salad instead which I didn't, my salmon came out my salad consisted of two cut up cherry tomatoes and two slices of cucumber and a load of garnish that looked like grass, by the time the waitress asked if every thing was ok I had eaten the meal which consisted of one salmon filled a poached egg and a small amount of crispy potatoes I said to the waitress that I was very disappointed with the salad, explained what it consisted of, her reply was oh didn't she do the salad! the waitress did offer to do a salad for me but I had already eaten the meal, to top it all My husband was asked if he wanted condiments as there were none on the table he asked for vinegar which didn't materialize at all. Service 2/10 meal that actually got eaten 3/10 if you can find somewhere else, go there.

A little more recent feedback... I found myself working in shamley green today so I called into the Red Lion for lunch... Sean is still at the helm and as welcoming as ever. I was greeted by Griff who recommended the salmon / Pollock and potato fish cakes WOW... !! .... What a delight, light to the palette but enough to satisfy a hungry person. The chef really made this dish something to be proud of... He has added a little bit of finesse to an already very desirable place to eat, It's the little touches like burning the lion branding into the burger buns (photo) top chefs are hard to find but Sean seems to have found a keeper. Each time I've been here, the food has been off the chart compared to the usual branded chains... Proper Chef made food not the usual processed stuff. Everything is prepared from scratch and made fresh from the best quality ingredients... The difference in taste is something you have to experience to appreciated. I've been in the kitchen and watched them preparing the dishes and the hygiene standards are up there with the best. This meal was delicious and my compliments to the chef, the home made Gribiche (sauce) was so light and fresh it really completed the dish beautifully. I just wish this place was closer to home... I would Highly recommended it's definitely worth the journey even if you have to travel to get here Evo. Ps... Dogs definitely welcome !! Doggy dinners and treats are available at the bar... (Photos) 🐶🦴🐕 ---------------------------- I called in here today... I was amazed at the quality of the food, I had the burger and fries... A huge handmade burger which is probably one the best I've ever tasted. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned with plenty of fresh salad. When I arrived was greeted by Sean the owner, he was really friendly and welcoming to all the customers. The Red Lion is a beautiful old country pub which has been tastefully renovated with a real homely feel. This pub is a real credit to Sean spotlessly clean, bright and fresh and all the staff I met were friendly and very helpful. This pub has plenty of inside and outside tables and a top quality chef, What more could you ask for 🙂 Photos show my burger and fries and a few items of the food that was being prepared in the kitchen. If your in the area then I highly recommend popping in to enjoy the service and the fantastic food. 😋😋😋

The cheese soufflé was the best I've eaten in my life; all the meat we tried for our mains; and the puddings!!!!!! the best 4 puddings I've ever had, could not have picked a favourite. If you do anything, come here for the food!!! The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful. Had a fantastic day here. Thank you! Annie

A first class experience, from start to finish. We stayed one night, with evening meal and breakfast, though we had been before many years ago. It is clearly a really well managed Inn. The initial greeting was friendly and professional, the room spotlessly clean and well prepared, our evening meal was delicious, plentiful and of good quality, with very friendly and amusing waiting staff, and the breakfast was also excellent and with great choice available. If you add in the value for money, for an traditional experience of village inns, the Red Lion would be very difficult to beat. We would recommend it without hesitation.

As a person on my own, I crave for one thing to start with, a warm welcome and a friendly atmosphere, take it from me, you will get this every time you visit The Red Lion. I visit this pub when ever I am in the area as apart from the warm welcome, the service is always done in a cheerful friendly manner, any dietary problems dealt with when ordering from the menu, the food is always served “hot”, and presentation is “spot on” 👍. The team and the locals are always on hand to give you any advice and tips on the places of interest in the surrounding area that might be helpful in your search. To add in this cold weather, there is a lovely open log fire to greet you, say no more 😁 just pop in and see for yourself. plus dogs are welcome !!

First visit for some time after easily booking a table on line. Staff were friendly and helpful. Drinks and menus were provided without delay and the menu showed a good selection of food at reasonable prices. There was no delay in the food being served...

Fabulous meal. Booked via the Green King app an hour before, they were ready for us and we were seated straight away. Main meals were outstanding, the chips were crispy and light. Everything main dish was well cooked. Desserts were again lovely. Restaurant was clean...

I came to the Red Lion for Sunday lunch after hearing good word of mouth. I wasn't disappointed. My roast Turkey was lovely, very hot and served on a hot plate! All the staff were great and service with a smile.

This was our third visit to the Say and Sele. Outstanding service. We all chose from the Christmas menu. Lots of choice. The turkey actually tasted of turkey. The beef was very tasty as well. Wonderful crispy roast potatoes. My husband said the Christmas pudding was as good as mine! I did check it out, and it was. We will be back.

This used to be a nice quiet "local" pub with a good ambience and atmosphere. However, we visited on a Saturday early evening and found it spoilt by kids running around playing and squealing out of control. In fact, it was worse than Wetherspoons! One child was even allowed to run around behind the bar (which is illegal) and allowed to ring the bell. Total chaos in this place now and we won’t be visiting again which is a shame as were regulars. If you like a nice quiet pub with an adult atmosphere, then avoid this place. If you want to sit in a kids creche then you will be happy here. Shame on the Landlord for allowing this to becoming the "new Wetherspoons"!

The food was absolutely disgusting and so so expensive. A baguette was £8, absolutely crazy and was inedible.

A real joy to find Stuart and Carole on my doorstep, atmosphere in the old pub sense, they know their business without losing personal contact, every visit the same without losing a welcoming quality, you've got the right balance in a difficult financial climate, long may it be so!!
